Bella Napoli / Green Business Meeting 5-8-2018

I was present for a green business meeting hosted by BTG this Tuesday.
The focus was food waste and the ways to improve.

Bella Napoli is a family restaurant that thrives off of the threads of relationships it has weaved throughout the years.
Bella Napoli is more than a conversation or one plate of pasta. It is a moment we share together that gets us through the lesser days.

Behind these moments are the details of the work place. 
Making lists, ordering products, organizing, prepping, serving, and of course loving.

There is however more to our story, and that story continues in our trash bins.

As much as a passing smile can carry itself through the day, so too does our trash carry itself way beyond our bins.

Food waste is one of our beautiful problems. Sending food to the landfill creates methane.
Creating a conversation about composting the wasted, and donating the left overs is not only something we can benefit from as a family who cares about their home. It should be our honor to share the benefit of healthy compost for farmers and feeding homeless who seek a full stomach.
Everyday we work to make Bella Napoli a home away from home. With our excess resources we can spread that family love further than our backdoor.

The free recycle program offers
Consultation, consult summary, solutions and waste outlets. Space and bin management, training and education for employees.

To show people our efforts is room for bragging rights, and sharing our care can encourage others to do the same.

Power of Spirit 7-1-2018

We have a problem. Our fast paced lifestyle with so many topics and subjects that need our attention and help, focusing on things greater than our personal life can feel overreached .. From the coral reef, and rainforests to the very eco system of bugs and soil in our backyard.  Although we are tied to the strings of doubt, failure, mortality., We have been granted the chance to be a part of a team of motivated woman who want to better this world. We can inspire and remind the people in our community of all the amazing things we can do to change the world for the better We can be the spirit of the community that bridges the mind of information with the body of action. We are of the information age, and near past it.. We have the ability to know many great things. Great things like what we do has an impact, and that every act can be measured. The smallest things can lead to the largest outcome. You are here 1. because you are smart. You are smart in knowing that t

San Fransisco - LA Sweetgreen roadtrip 4-29-2018

Tuesday morning- April 24th I will be traveling with a Orion down the west coast with a final destination of Arizona. Orion works for a farm to table concept called SweetGreen. He builds personal relationships with the farmers to learn their system and values. We will be leaving San Francisco and visit farms throughout the west coast and the south states.  Orion and I begin on the road this morning towards a mushroom farm , high production high scaled. I want to focus on the education aspect of this but I can’t help pulling an emotional human experience with it. Orion and I visit Global Mushroom. Most everything is automated. Our guy Chris tells us that before they expanded he told the boss man about automation. Implementing this system into an old system doesn’t work. You can’t stop production to create a new way. You need to expand in to a new system as to make the old system obsolete.  The equipment mixes, weighs, drops the agricultural waste into wooden crate. Then t

My Celi love for Mycelium

I had seen the videos over the last 4 years… Mycoremediation- using mycelium to breakdown different materials that are negative on this environment and breaking the carbon bonds with special enzymes to produce carbohydrates which can be positive or neutral in our environment I had also fallen for a couple new companies growing furniture with mycelium…. Following them online was a blessing, My passion followed in action.  I found a mushroom farmer in Kansas City. Carie Cave. Not only is she humble and full of love, but she allowed me in her space to teach me and show me the details in producing a culinary mushroom. Free Education through volunteering… I learned how sensitive this live culture is to light, air, and other competing microbes. I found my new love, oh and by the way, did you know that mushrooms are more closely related to the animal kingdom than to plants? These special microorganism are used to expand our mind, our body, and soon, recovering of our planets he
